What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Evaluation of the prevalence of symptomatic or asymptomatic deep venous thrombosis in cancer patients with implantable device for central venous access with or without prophylaxis :

    Measured: Day90

  2. Low molecular weight Heparin (LMWH) 2500 U anti-XA/day or Warfarine 1 mg/day during the first line of chemotherapy

    Measured: Day90

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. - Detection of asymptomatic thrombosis related to implantable device estimated by a systematic echo-doppler. -

    Measured: Day90

  2. - Frequency of other symptomatic venous thromboembolic events between 3 groups.

    Measured: J0, J1, J21, J42, J63 and J90

  3. Comparison of thrombosis prophylaxis by LMWH with warfarin at low dose

    Measured: Day90

  4. -Costs in the 3 strategies

    Measured: J90

  5. - Tumoral response to chemotherapy in the 3 groups.

    Measured: Day90

  6. - Overall survival in each group.

    Measured: Day90

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing warfarine - low molecular heparin in people with Cancer, run by University Hospital, Limoges at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of the prevalence of symptomatic or asymptomatic deep venous thrombosis in cancer patients with implantable device for central venous access with or without prophylaxis : (time frame: Day90). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00199602, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Aug 2018.
